Longtime broadcaster Barney Hall, known as the definitive radio voice of NASCAR, has died. He was 83.
Hall passed away on Tuesday due to complications from a recent medical procedure.
Hall was known as "The Voice of NASCAR", as he was the main broadcaster of the Motor Racing Network, which was the network's tagline.
MRN president David Hyatt said Hall was "perhaps the most trusted reporter of his day." He also mentored many of the radio and TV broadcasters who work in the racing industry today.
"Barney Hall was the true voice of NASCAR and although his own voice has gone silent, his presence will live on in the many current motor sports broadcasters who learned at the knee of such a great storyteller," Hyatt said.
We here at "The Ultimate NASCAR Blog" send our prayers and thoughts to Barney Hall's family and friends.
